Authors: Ellen Schreiber
Comedy Girl (18 page)
Special thanks to my dad, Gary, my armchair comedy coach, for knowing what is funny and, more importantly, what's not. My mom, Suzanne, for insisting I go into stand-up comedy and for always laughing the loudest. My brother Mark, for your wit and for paving the way for me to follow my dreams. And my brother Ben, the real stand-up comedian in the family.
Thanks to Katherine Tegen, a wonderful friend and editor, with a great sense of humor. Julie Hittman for your hard work and upbeat personality. And the friendly staff at HarperCollins.
A comedy girl herself,
Ellen Schreiber
was an actress and a stand-up comedienne before becoming a full-time writer. She is the author of the novels
TEENAGE MERMAID
and
VAMPIRE KISSES
.
